HAVEL & PARTNERS is the only law firm in the Czech Republic and Slovakia to be included in the prestigious The Legal 500 EMEA Green Guide. The Guide publishes a list of the best law firms focusing on services in the area of sustainability and promoting green transformation principles in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region. 

“ESG and sustainability consulting is a rapidly growing segment of our services and an important part of our business strategy. We help clients put key sustainability principles into practice and advise them on new green opportunities. The transition to sustainable business models has quickly moved from a level of enthusiasm to a necessary obligation for companies. This is not only due to tightening regulations, but also to the business and economic implications that already make the transition to sustainable operation a significant competitive advantage in business,” says partner Jan Koval.

HAVEL & PARTNERS helps clients understand the sustainability requirements relevant to their business. For ESG, the firm has a team of specialists who provide comprehensive advice to clients on sustainability, relevant environmental regulations and commitments, or in the context of renewable energy and green funding projects.

The firm offers personalised advice on all legal, tax and other professional issues related to ESG. It conducts ESG compliance audits and develops tailored ESG programmes for businesses - from supply chain management and building investor confidence, to protecting employee health, to responsible and sustainable public procurement.

The firm itself takes a responsible approach to its own operations and also strives to promote a sustainable approach to business. The firm is a founding member of the Climate & Sustainable Leaders Czech Republic platform, which supports the reduction of the carbon footprint of the Czech economy by motivating companies and helping them to switch to a sustainable way of operating. As the first law firm in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, HAVEL & PARTNERS has also become part of the United Nations Global Compact - an international initiative of the United Nations to promote sustainability, equality and anti-corruption.

The Legal 500 Global Green Guide is the first global ranking of the top law firms advising on climate change, governance and management, and sustainability issues and contributing to the “green transformation”. The review assesses law firms based on their representation of clients in litigation and transactions that seek to mitigate climate change, or their involvement in regulatory advice, and also evaluates their own sustainability initiatives.
